One of the Legends to get some TLC at the start of Apex Legends' latest season is Lifeline. She's arguably the most identifiable healer in the game, but she fell by the wayside of the game's meta over time. She's now faring much better in the battle royale side of things, but she's doing particularly well in the Apex's new 3v3 mode Arenas.
Respawn Entertainment recently held an AMA on Reddit, with someone taking the opportunity to ask the developers how they feel Lifeline is doing after the rework. Lead game designer Daniel Klein says that she's doing "a little too well" so far, though he also admits it's too early to tell.
"Numerically, she's too strong," he says. "She wins too often, both across the game as a whole and in every single skill bucket we look at, and she's picked very often (particularly in Arenas). Does that mean we must nerf her right away? No. Experientially, she's so much better. No longer having the resurrection shield means it's feasible to thirst a downed enemy being revived, but that also gives Lifeline an option to engage you while you're otherwise occupied or when your gun's running dry. Good play on both sides."
